Тенденції сучасної української літературної мови та їх відображення в мові ЗМІ

Research methodology. This article examines changes in the lexical system of modern Ukrainian language and display them in the language of the media. Borrowed neologisms and ones of the nativelanguage, including lexical units that went from passive to active language fund are under study.The aim is to describe trends in the evolution of the modern Ukrainian language by the example of the media, because the media fully demonstrate the dynamics of the native modern Ukrainian language.Reflecting the historical, social and political changes in society, the media appear together with the terms of «the linguistic tastes of the era.» They stimulate language development, while expanding its vocabularyby entering not only new loans into circulation, but also involving specific language resources, offering their own variations to the Ukrainian foreign nominations. Therefore, it appears the subject of modern media research interests of many Ukrainian scholars, including A. Ponomarev, E. Karpilovskа, A. Serbenskа, S. Yermolenko, M. Yatsymirska, A. Styshov, G. Shapovalova and determines the urgency of further developments in this area.Results. Expressive tendencies of the Ukrainian language at the present stage of its development are rapid replenishment of its vocabulary with new words to fill existing gaps and to eliminate unsuitable alien nominations and producing its own language, more comfortable models which reflect the national characteristics of speech. Among the neologisms, popularized by the media, borrowed tokens are available,including political, economic, sports and other fields, as well as the verbal new units. The latter ones are generated by productive language models, involving powerful word creative resources of language and thereby expanding the ranks of synonymous words. However, the language of the media observed the distribution of occasional words, domination colloquial, vernacular elements that demonstrate speakers’ looseness, eliminating the strict canons as well as easing censorship. The changes of the vocabulary of the Ukrainian language and its activation, caused by «passive» language resources» and their introduction in daily circulation, which obviously explains the tendency of society to play spiritual traditions, cultural values and social realities, are lost due to the historical change.The practical significance. The research of trends of modern Ukrainian literary language to the language of media serves as an example of looking for the patterns of development of Ukrainian language.Исследованы изменения в лексической системе языка и их отражение в языке  средств массовой информации.

Exploiting growing stock volume maps for large scale forest resource assessment: Cross-comparisons of ASAR- and PALSAR-based GSV estimates with forest inventory in Central Siberia

Growing stock volume is an important biophysical parameter describing the state and dynamics of the Boreal zone. Validation of growing stock volume (GSV) maps based on satellite remote sensing is challenging due to the lack of consistent ground reference data. The monitoring and assessment of the remote Russian forest resources of Siberia can only be done by integrating remote sensing techniques and interdisciplinary collaboration. In this paper, we assess the information content of GSV estimates in Central Siberian forests obtained at 25m from ALOS-PALSAR and 1km from ENVISAT-ASAR backscatter data. The estimates have been cross-compared with respect to forest inventory data showing 34% relative RMSE for the ASAR-based GSV retrievals and 39.4% for the PALSAR-based estimates of GSV. Fragmentation analyses using a MODIS-based land cover dataset revealed an increase of retrieval error with increasing fragmentation of the landscape. Cross-comparisons of multiple SAR-based GSV estimates helped to detect inconsistencies in the forest inventory data and can support an update of outdated forest inventory stands

Nuclear dependence of the transverse single-spin asymmetry in the production of charged hadrons at forward rapidity in polarized p+pp+p, p+p+Al, and p+p+Au collisions at sNN=200\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=200 GeV

We report on the nuclear dependence of transverse single-spin asymmetries (TSSAs) in the production of positively-charged hadrons in polarized $p^{\uparrow}+p$, $p^{\uparrow}+$Al and $p^{\uparrow}+$Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=200$ GeV. The measurements have been performed at forward rapidity ($1.4<\eta<2.4$) over the range of $1.8<p_{T}<7.0$ GeV$/c$ and $0.1<x_{F}<0.2$. We observed a positive asymmetry $A_{N}$ for positively-charged hadrons in \polpp collisions, and a significantly reduced asymmetry in $p^{\uparrow}$+$A$ collisions. These results reveal a nuclear dependence of charged hadron $A_N$ in a regime where perturbative techniques are relevant. These results provide new opportunities to use \polpA collisions as a tool to investigate the rich phenomena behind TSSAs in hadronic collisions and to use TSSA as a new handle in studying small-system collisions.Comment: 303 authors from 66 institutions, 9 pages, 2 figures, 1 table. v1 is version accepted for publication in Physical Review Letters.

Nuclear dependence of the transverse-single-spin asymmetry for forward neutron production in polarized pp++AA collisions at sNN=200\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=200 GeV

During 2015 the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) provided collisions of transversely polarized protons with Au and Al nuclei for the first time, enabling the exploration of transverse-single-spin asymmetries with heavy nuclei. Large single-spin asymmetries in very forward neutron production have been previously observed in transversely polarized $p$$+$$p$ collisions at RHIC, and the existing theoretical framework that was successful in describing the single-spin asymmetry in $p$$+$$p$ collisions predicts only a moderate atomic-mass-number ($A$) dependence. In contrast, the asymmetries observed at RHIC in $p$$+$$A$ collisions showed a surprisingly strong $A$ dependence in inclusive forward neutron production. The observed asymmetry in $p$$+$Al collisions is much smaller, while the asymmetry in $p$$+$Au collisions is a factor of three larger in absolute value and of opposite sign. The interplay of different neutron production mechanisms is discussed as a possible explanation of the observed $A$ dependence.Comment: 315 authors, 8 pages, 4 figures, 1 table. v2 is version accepted for publication in Phys.
